Congratulations, John,
This is an excellent write-up. It should be published in the AMSAT Journal.
Cudos to all whom were on the other end and to you for your persistence.

APRS has standardized an ID series for amateur Oscar spacecraft. APOxxx.
At the request of Juan Carlos, LU9DO, AMSAT-LUwanted a series of APRS
designators for uniquely identifying AMSAT APRS applications. He
suggested those beginning with the letter O for OSCARS.
ALL APRS applications include
Hi John,
Congratulations on your great accomplishment!
Well deserving for one who who contributes so much to the Satellite
community.
Of course we are all aware of the, rest of the story, that this has
not been a one
way effort!
You have certainly provided your share of many new grids for

Hi,
As part of moving features to the new AMSAT.ORG site, we are cleaning out old
programs which are no
longer used or useful. I would appreciate Mac users looking at the old
programs and letting me know
which ones are still useful, or not.
John,
NICE GOING A long and difficult challenge and quest is finally
accomplished!! CONGRATS!
It was very nice to give needed credit to the many other Hams who
helped you during your endeavor. Excellent Ham Radio Spirit!
I support the idea of having an ARRL Award similar to the FFMA for
No, AMSAT does not offer an award for this. The reason is that AMSAT is
an international organization and to offer an award that is only
available to those in one hemisphere would not be in keeping with the
spirit of our society. We promote operating satellites and try to do so
worldwide. Yes,
Nice to hear that and Congratulations to you John!

For those in the DC area who are planning to go to the Symposium in
Houston, try United Airlines. I got a round trip ticket including taxes
and fees for $285!
